Two nights ago, I woke up at 1am to read and had just gone back to nap when I found inspiration to write this piece.
Sometimes the choices we make in life, can either push us to the top or undo us. When it comes to friendships, business partners, marriage etc. our choices can mar the future.
People are looking for walking sticks, some are looking for carriers and others drivers, some others, just spectators to cheer them on in the field of life towards attaining a medal or reaching their finish line. Which one are you? Which one are you looking for?
Sometimes our choices of who we need and what we want to be to others can change our lives forever. Lately, the people hate the cheerleader, spectator or alarm clock types. They would rather go in for the great in giving me pleasure type.
There are others who the moment they get upset will ruin every single empire they helped you build. Are you one of those people ? You don't have to be. A good person does not brag about how good he or she is. A good person is known by their deeds.
Some people will forget the very minute things you did for them that turned their lives around. They will tear you down by a single raise of the arm. What do you do?
Your value does not diminish by the way a person decides to treat you. You are who you are. A queen or king,strong,a cheerleader, a helper...
Stop switching loyalty roles because someone let you down. Stop trying to unmake people because you had a little misunderstanding with them. Let your worth be seen and measured by the real you.
May I ask, who are you to someone on the field of life? Cheerful or spectator, alarm clock or coach, walking stick or carrier?

Hoping to write more in the days ahead.
Congratulations to Mawuli, you walk down the aisle on Friday.
Unfortunately, I cannot be there to support you,
but my wish for you, is to practice all those poems you've been writing with no one else but your wife. Grow old together !
